I was about to say Bone china only at our house. Best for tea and coffee always, it just takes different and keeps the heat better. :)

The thinner the lip the more of the taste you get in your palette! its the difference between gulping it down with no care for taste and sipping it so you get the flavor on your tongue !! just like fine wine tasting really !! its in vessel and delivery :) I feel a revelation and sermon coming on !

I do what I need to do for the moment regarding what cups to use. Through forced variety you eventually learn what is best. Bone China is it, preferably with a curved lip. I have even purchased bone china with flowers just to get the right feel/taste/experience. It's a visual compromise, but a tasty experience none the less. Beni calls me Monk. :-)

Larissa laughs at me but I think this is your best post yet. I don't fully know why it just is....Ok Bill I have one you haven't tried yet. Do you like Swordfish? If so, there is one place I know of where they harpoon the fish and the meat is twice as good as anywhere! Typically they catch them on long lines and they don't harvest the meat properly. It would take a long time to explain, but believe it or not where I grew up "Catalina" has the best tasting swordfish in the world as far as I know! You have to try it!
